As amusing as it is to hear Bobby Pickett's cartoonish "Monster Mash" while elementary kids parade in school hallways in costume, Halloween has developed into an adult holiday, not just with family-oriented trick-or-treating.

Competition with intricate costumes, festive alcoholic drinks, more horror and slasher movie releases then ever before: Adults deserve a Halloween party, too, after we have outgrown picking up free candy in pumpkin buckets.
